both candidates, president obama and governor romney, said good things about simpson bowles. of course, neither one of them embraced it. but the other thing that happened, and it hasn't been emphasized as much as i would have thought, i think we have some creeping candor going on in terms of the structural deficit situation. governor romney made it clear that he's going to have rate cuts but not tax cuts. he's talking about revenue neutral reduction in rates. that's a $5 trillion change just in one debate. and on the other side, president obama, this was a dog that didn't bark, in effect, because usually democrats talk about medicare and social security in a way that indicates they would never do anything about it. president obama, to his credit, did not do that. so i took some encouraging spin from those things during the debate. >> if you're encouraged, then we're encouraged. >> something that congress can build on. that may give people in the congress working together a little more ammunition. >> very good. thank you, senator. good to see you, as always, senator sam nunn.
